UX Week 2008 - Program Final, including Pixar!
by petermeWith the addition of three more speakers, we have finalized the UX Week 2008 schedule. We still don’t have all the bios, headshots, and session abstracts in, but we do know what is happening at every point throughout the schedule.
On Day 1, we’ve added Leah Buley, bringing her “Being A UX Team of One” talk, which was one of the highest-rated talks at this year’s IA Summit.
On Day 2, we’ve added Current TV. Current is the groundbreaking cable channel whose goal is no less than to democratize media. From inception, they’ve been a multi-channel media brand, with equal emphasis in online and offline. We’ll learn about the challenges for designing for a fractured media landscape, how to incorporate quality user-generated content, and maybe even a little about what it means to have Al Gore as your boss.
On Day 4, we’ve added keynote speaker Michael B. Johnson from computer animation pioneers Pixar. Michael works in the Moving Pictures Group, designing, developing and supporting the in-house pipeline for Story, Art and Editorial. Michael will share with us Pixar’s creative process, with stories from their actual work.
